Listening to a NY Mets game, called by the SF Giants announcers. The best!

Great Way To End The Day / Week
The Bound Book is Dead (?)
I picked up the Kindle app for the iPhone and recently purchased the Tribes book from Seth Godin. I’ve been on a few trips of mid-size duration lately that I didn’t necessarily call for a laptop, and this app has come in very handy.
I think the debates over whether this is good for the book industry are overblown. To me, it seems like this mirrors the newspaper v. Internet debate a bunch of years back.
If the ultimate goal is to expand the customer base, in this case book and magazine readers, the Kindle app for the iPhone (and the Kindle itself) seem to do this.
So, what’s the debate?
Oh, Those Pictures Up There?
The images at the top of the page? I took those. With the iPhone, mainly. Sometimes you’ll see an image that is really, really crisp. That’s with a nicer camera, but the majority are taken from the trusty little iPhone. You can refresh the page and a different image will load.
Where were they taken? Oh, geez. All over. New York and San Francisco, mainly, but sometimes the click-click urge takes place while playing golf in Connecticut, or on a business trip in Kentucky. Or walking around in London.
